I agree 100%. From what I've personally seen, I think younger people are actually becoming less versed in computers. There was a brief moment in time in which:

1. Most people had access to computers.

2. Computers were difficult to use and required building skills.

2 is no longer true anymore, so those skills are getting lost. Try asking a 15 year old what a filesystem is.
